Russia’s shadow war against the West is escalating. At the same time, figures with ties to Moscow keep turning up around Trump’s inner circle. Evan Gershkovich tells @timmiller.bsky.social why it’s a counterintelligence nightmare.

You would think openly ignoring the rule of law & leading an insurrection against the US would be enough to impeach (and jail) him, but I'm perfectly happy if we get him on improper advertising funding.

There are no “legitimate concerns” about trans people. There aren’t any about women’s safety or fairness in sports or kids being kids or fucking toilets. If there were you’d have heard of them before 2018. I am a cis white woman so you have to listen to me or I’ll cry.

We do need more young people stepping up in politics- whether running for office or taking the lead on campaigns. Jon Tester owed his 2018 election partially to the record turnout by HYAGV and then the Dems let those talented youth organizers disappear. #MTPol flatheadbeacon.com/2026/09/28/a...

Over 300 AI surveillance cameras seems like a lot for a small campus like UM. It takes months to get the bid, get it approved, find the money and put them up. Bodnar had to have approved it, while cutting entire academic programs, and before he hightailed it out. Press should ask him why. #mtpol

They’re likely trying to prevent defections, but I understand why everyone thinks this is ominous - there’s a lot of intel out there that Putin is planning a major escalation, likely in the Baltic States. Which would be an absolutely moronic thing for him to do, but here we are.

there's a reason why our founders put 'freedom of the press' right into the very first amendment. thank you for your attention to today's post, in which I explain it to the diapershittingest moron ever to crap himself raw in Oval Bordello. link is here, please read it: bit.ly/4AuKhyz
of course, this whole fucktangle is about more than legal battles over who gets to be a reporter.

the larger issue is, what kind of country do we want? one where the government and those who report on the government engage in an open and honest dialog? or one where some cranky Diaperload-in-Chief gets mad at words, and tries to hide his shitty crimes from public view?

I know what Teddy Roosevelt’s answer would be.

you can’t have a functioning democracy without freedom of the press. our founders knew that — that’s why they made the First Amendment the very first amendment.

and contrary to whatever MAGA may think, there’s no clause in the Constitution that says anything about ‘in 250 years we try having a king again, only this time he’s really fucking dumb.’
